Why? Why!?

Why? Why!?

So there I am. It's two in the morning and my eyes are red. My body says sleep, my mind says play. Play Animal Crossing all night long that is. I'm addicted to Animal Crossing for the GC. Countless times I've asked myself the simple question, "why?"

"Why do I play this game so much?"
"What is so great about it?"
"WHY DO I COLLECT PEACHES!?"

I looked at the back of the Animal Crossing case. Filled with pictures of cute animals doing this and that. No violence, no excitement, nothing that would normally appeal to me. Infact the only reason I had bought the game was because I had heard all about it and how addicting it was.

Now I'm in my basement 24/7 gaming it up. My GC finally has an excuse to run (honestly, the only other game I enjoy on it is Mario Kart DD.) I've considered buying Harvest Moon too which looks fairly similar to Animal Crossing in terms of play style and I've played it at a friends before. It was a blast but I've yet to buy it.

My friends all think I'm a wuss for liking it, but I just sit them down and make them play it. They don't stand a chance.
